Description

This book offers a groundbreaking long-term study of Wilson County, North Carolina. Charting the evolution of Wilson’s civil rights movement, McKinney argues that African Americans in Wilson created an expansive notion of freedom that influenced every aspect of life in the region and directly confronted the state’s reputation for moderation.
